CHURCH on SermonAudio

Pastor Jeremiah Gabbard | Actst 11:19-26 This sermon defines the characteristics of a genuine believer by examining the early church in Antioch as recorded in Acts 11. It argues that a Christ-like Christian must possess a heart grounded in devotion to the Lord, doctrine anchored in biblical truth rather than situational ethics, and a life that visibly reflects Christ to the world. The speaker warns against emotionalism and entertainment-driven worship, emphasizing that sound teaching and faithful obedience are essential for spiritual stability. By contrasting true discipleship with superficial association, the message calls believers to examine their own commitment and ensure their lives serve as evidence of their faith. Ultimately, the goal is for Christians to be conduits for God's work rather than obstacles in a corrupt world.
